Healthy Eating and Active Lifestyles for Diabetes (HEAL-D) Online: a mixed methods evaluation exploring the feasibility of implementing a virtual culturally tailored diabetes self-management programme for African and Caribbean communities
This evaluation demonstrates the feasibility of delivering HEAL-D using an online platform, with its ability to achieve similar goals compared with its face-to-face counterpart. Challenges were identified around the identification, recruitment and referral of eligible patients into the programme, which need to be addressed for successful implementation on a wider scale.
